Event description

Experience the magic of Shakespeare's "The Tempest" like never before with Trinity Repertory Company's production of "La Tempestad The Tempest." This unique adaptation, translated and adapted by Orlando Hernández, Tatyana-Marie Carlo, and Leandro Kufa Castro, and directed by Christie Vela, offers a fresh perspective on the classic tale. The production seamlessly blends Shakespeare's original English with translated Spanish dialogue, accompanied by projected subtitles, ensuring a comprehensive understanding for all audience members.

"La Tempestad The Tempest" deconstructs colonialist narratives while preserving the enchanting elements of shipwreck, romance, magic, and fantasy that have made Shakespeare's final play a timeless favorite. Originally presented in 2018 as a touring Teatro en El Verano production, this rendition marks its first transition to Trinity Rep’s main stage. The play is a significant addition to the centuries-long tradition of interpreting Shakespeare, offering a compelling mix of languages and cultural perspectives.

With a runtime of about two hours and thirty minutes, including a fifteen-minute intermission, this production promises to be an engaging and thought-provoking experience. Join us at the Dowling Theater for a performance that reimagines Shakespeare’s brave new world through a decolonized lens, bringing new life to a beloved classic.
